Abstract
The reaction of sodium diphenylamide with 2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(tosyloxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolane gave (+)-(4S,5S)-2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylaminomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane, which was brought into complex formation with cobalt chloride. Treatment of 2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(tosyloxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolane with sodium N-methylanilide resulted in cleavage of the SÄO bond in the p-toluenesulfonate moiety with formation of N-methyl-N-phenyl-p-toluenesulfonamide and 4,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane disodium salt. Diethyl (4R,5R)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-dicarboxylate reacted with methylamine to give the corresponding dicarboxamide which was reduced with lithium aluminum hydride to (4S,5S)-2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(methylaminomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane having chiral carbon and nitrogen atoms.
